Fair trade. Right now we screw them over on trade deals.

Some of the curious things in his grammar or structure, as well as his vocab difficulties, are completely normal for someone who lived in an english-speaking environment for an extended amount of time, let alone decades. I had some oddities in my grammar and sentence structure after just a year of living in America, with my family, so I still spoke a lot of German. And yet my brain partly rewired, so that I applied English grammar to German sentences. It is remarkable how good he still spoke German after decades of being surrounded by English, and having to construct all of that on the spot. His accent is native, he uses colloquial pronunciations like "Jacht" (spoken something like "Jakht" with "kh" being a guttural sound) instead of "Jagd".

It doesn't matter what language he speaks we miss him. :(

I think someone can search their vocabulary for the best word in any language not that he was struggling just wanted to phrase things a particular way.

There was a family connection to the House of Battenburg ( Mountbatten). Lord Louis Mountbatten was advised to change his surname to Mounbatten, to find acceptability amongst the populace of Britain. And the Late Prince Phillip was Lord Mountbatten's nephew. Hence the German connection.

His focused languages as toddler surely were German by heritage (as this outstanding proof & in mind he hadn't really been around a German environment since mid 1930s as teenager to keep on speaking!) and of course Greek since he should inherit that throne. His perfect English and French (surely coming AFTER German & Greek as Mother Tongues in Elementary Boarder School) are more than enough. Danish is to specific and if he's not up to inherit that throne it's rather pointless. I'm sure he knows a few small talk sentences in Dutch, Swedish, Norsk, Danish.... on Official Royal Receptions. Also easy to be learnt at a later age in case if really needed. Most degenerated ppl nowadays can't even speak their sole mother tongue proper. In a time we know every hair and implant on Kim Asshole it's rather sad we know so little plain facts about head of states for 70 yrs. Such public figures and we rather had no private insight at all. It's just coming lately to surface what a real family they were. Better than most with their little jobs and troubles, yet got ridiculed for decades as bad parents. And didn't blank out feeding media frenzy going to Oprah. Oleskool Epitome!

This is one more example backing the argument that the royal family is greatly needed in Britain and for the rest of the world. The Windsors used to be Hanoverians and they still are despite nomenclature. The royals have immense wealth in language and diplomatic talents that we can all learn from. The late Queen and Consort are deeply missed on this side of the Atlantic.

Prince Philip was at school in Germany before moving to the UK, in the early 1930s and then going to Gordonstone School in Scotland. He also lived in France for years as a young child, when his family were exiled and went to school there, so he also speaks French. Modern Greek too since his father was brother to the King of Greece.

@@adambrocklehurst4211 Well that's how the monarchy worked, every european noble house was international and they all conversed in french for along time and espescially the english and eastern european houses had a huge german influence aswell back in the day. If you look at all the old dukes and barons and lords from the former Polish kingdom, Galicia, Austria-Hungary, Russia or Estonia you see alot of German names. Kaiser Wilhelm, Zar Nikolas and King George were all cousins and grandchildren of Queen Victoria for example. There's interesting personal letters they wrote to each other in german shortly before they started World War 1 (they call each other Willi, Nikki and Georgie). The King of Spain was also the King of the Netherlands. People nowadays forget it because our world works very differently now, but like up until 150 years ago the nation states weren't really established, europe was a collection of many regions that were somehow divided under these pretty international, interconnected noble families.
